Very nice setup you have in your garage. With the temps we are having this year, I need a small window unit like that to help with my central air in the garage (only have two vents coming out into the garage and that's not enough to do the job).

I'm jealous. Sweet set-up. I appreciate the bumper on the wall as well. I love those things

Are those 4" floors or did you have to mod the floor to handle lift? I keep saying I don't need one anymore and car keeps telling me I do!

I have a new stereo for my daughter's '98 Acura 3.0 CL and have been dreading the install in a sweltering garage. But your post motivated me to haul an unused (left over from my son's college days) window a/c unit up from the basement and stick it into one of the windows in my garage. It's a big space and only a medium-size unit (fine for a dorm room) but it has to be better than no air. I will see tomorrow morning.

Thanks for the kick in the pants!

Insulate and seal the garage doors. Mine garage is heated now. By next summer it will be cooled as well. The lift is due to show up in November!

Nice setup OP!

Sweet, now I know where I can go to get my car in the air. Not too far of a drive.

How is getting your car on the hoist? My car is so low I'd probably have to pull it up on some wood first.

You ever cruise Woodward? You're super close!
